[MinIO](https://min.io) is a High Performance Object Storage released under Apache License v2.0. It is API compatible with Amazon S3 cloud storage service. Use MinIO to build high performance infrastructure for machine learning, analytics and application data workloads.
MinIO supports [distributed mode](https://docs.minio.io/docs/distributed-minio-quickstart-guide). In distributed mode, you can pool multiple drives (even on different machines) into a single object storage server.

Introduction
------------
This chart bootstraps MinIO deployment on a [Kubernetes](http://kubernetes.io) cluster using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.
Configuration
-------------
The following table lists the configurable parameters of the MinIO chart and their default values.
| `persistence.existingClaim` | Use an existing PVC to persist data | `nil` |
| `persistence.storageClass` | Storage class name of PVC | `nil` |
| `persistence.accessMode` | ReadWriteOnce or ReadOnly | `ReadWriteOnce` |
| `persistence.subPath` | Mount a sub directory of the persistent volume if set | `""` |
| `environment` | Set MinIO server relevant environment variables in `values.yaml` file. MinIO containers will be passed these variables when they start. | `MINIO_STORAGE_CLASS_STANDARD: EC:4"` |
Some parameters above map to the env variables defined in the [MinIO DockerHub image](https://hub.docker.com/r/minio/minio/).
Pass environment variables to MinIO containers
